Howl*
- back with a vengeance and a new venue |
|
Fridays, 6th
and 20th February, 10pm till late, entry
fee
The Pavilion Bar, 296
Ormeau Road
Howl is Belfast's
monthly alternative music queer club night and it's been going
from strength to strength. After an extended summer break, Howl
is at a new venue -
The Pavilion Bar on the Upper Ormeau Road, where it'll do
its thing on the first Friday of each month. Ruth from Howl has
the details:
The
venue may have changed but the HOWL ideology remains the same.
HOWL inhabits a universe a million light years from the
commercial gay scene. HOWL is a space for queer folk and their
friends who get off on a different kind of beat.
The music will remain an eclectic mix of indie, rock, funk, hip
hop and a bit of whatever, brought to you by people who love the
tunes as much as you do. On top of that there’s the free HOWL
‘Zine, bringing you the best in avant garde nonsense with a
queer bent.
Check out the Howl
website or email
the organisers for details of upcoming events.
